Just amazing. The entire game, in fact.
Secret of Mana

Again, the whole game has great music.

So simple in terms of arrangement but the quality of the composition is obvious.

I'd forgotten about that gem. I'd have to say Amazon trumps moon though. By the narrowest of margins.

One of my all time favourite tunes from a game is from Another World, from the intro when the story is doing a Star Wars, but since I cannot find that on youtube, I'll have to post something from Super Metroid. SM and Final Fantasy contain most of my favourite game music ever, but im gonna pick a random from SM since there are so many.

Yoshi's Island <3
I love the music to this game. I've got a few of them on my mp3 collection.
My favourite is "Overworld", even though I don't know why it's called that - it's just another level tune, the first appearance of which is 1-7: Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy (where Yoshi gets high on those hallucinogenic spore things).
This is another favourite - the cave music:

I like the Mediaeval stylings.

For the medieval style I much prefer the castle one. This one makes me think more of some cheesy romantic soap opera theme (when the "flute" or whatever it is comes in, I always hear
"'twas a cold, cold christ-mas eve,
and you prom'sed, you were wai-ting for me ee-ee-ee"
which is terrible but now hopefully you'll always hear it as well
)
The Yoshi's Story soundtrack wasn't that bad either.
On the Beach
More medieval goodness
Other beach levels (if I remember right)

Nothing anyone could say will spoil that tune for me. The flute bit is my favourite part.
